An Offer: The Conservative Guide To Films

Folks, The Conservative Guide To Films is almost done. It's a rather extensive book with a ton of information that you will find incredibly useful. And I have a deal to offer you. I need reviews of my current two books. (LINK) Anyone who reviews both of those books will get a free copy of the conservative film guide as soon as it's available. The reviews don't need to be long and you can give them any rating you want. No strings attached. I need your help on this!

Folks, I really do need your help on this. Please leave reviews, get your family and friend to leave reviews. Reviews help a book appear on Amazon's search results and make sales.

If you want to help conservatives invade the culture, this is the way. And it will only take a few minutes and you'll even get a cool book for free out of it.

Ed said...

Andrew, I read both and both deserve to get noticed and I hope that everyone here leaves a review on both. You really have earned it, both with the work you've put in here and with the really strong books you wrote.

AndrewPrice said...

Thanks Ed. :)

AndrewPrice said...

By the way, The Conservative Guide To Films will be either paperback or kindle... your choice.

I don't think I reviewed "Wrongful Death." I should probably do that. It was pretty good.

Momentary OT: Gallup is starting to pick up results on its tracking poll from after the Tuesday debate. The one where Romney floundered on Libya and said he wanted to put women in binders and all that. What's changed?

Er, he expanded his lead among likely voters from six to seven. Oops.

AndrewPrice said...

Thanks T-Rav! :)

I saw Gallup's poll and you are right, his lead seems to keep growing. I find that very interesting. But that is a seven day poll, so it will be interesting to see what happens with polls that are only in the last couple days.

BevfromNYC said...

I saw that Romney is now leading in Electoral votes on RealClearPolitics. That's interesting. They calculate from an average of composite of polls.

BTW - I left a review of Wrongful Death. I have already done one for Without A Hitch. So, where's my free stuff?? Just kidding. I would do it for nothing! I will be buying copies of your books for Christmas presents!

AndrewPrice said...

Thanks Bev! Every review helps! :)

What's funny about the RCP poll results is that they are an average which includes even the way out biased results, so that means that Romney's lead is even bigger than they are projecting.

I even saw results from PPP the other day which show Romney basically tied in a bunch of states Obama should be winning, and PPP is very biased. So times are bad for Obama!

T-Rav said...

Bev, that's true, they have FINALLY moved North Carolina from toss-up (which it never was) to "Leans Romney" (which it always has been), and that puts Romney over Obama, 206-201. (Would be 235-201 if they'd tell the truth about Florida.)

I have to add this, in regard to the seven-point lead in Gallup. Last night on O'Reilly, Bob Beckel said of Republicans, "If you had a decent candidate, he'd have a 5 to 7 point lead right now."

Bob Beckel, just now on The Five: "It's over."

:-)

AndrewPrice said...

T-Rav, Beckel really said "it's over"? Wow.

T-Rav said...

Heard it with my own ears, Andrew. He also said that from what he's hearing, there is "full-blown panic" behind the scenes at the Obama campaign.

And Romney is now shifting money and staff from NC to MI and PA. Oh my....

AndrewPrice said...

I read this weekend that Obama had cancelled all of his events in Colorado, Virginia and Florida. But you never know if that's true. If it is, that's significant.

And it's fascinating that Beckel would say this right after Obama's rather strong debate performance -- and even more fascinating that his performance has had no legs, as the MSM has pretty much moved on to trying to find ways to smear Romney and Ryan.

I think the moderation for the last debate was so objectively lousy that it's like it didn't happen. C.C. blew it and became a lightning rod for all the follow-up attention. Consequently, whatever hits or misses might have been have been completely discounted. By default, the momentum from the first debate continues. Not to mention, Biden's treatment of Ryan played poorly with young voters and women, so that momentum is still going, as well.

AndrewPrice said...

tryanmax, That could well be. It could very well be that Crowley soaked up all the attention so nothing really changed. I also thought, frankly, that the debate was dull and that may have kept anyone from forming an opinion based on it.

BevfromNYC said...

Viewership was down for the second debate and would be that Monday's debate will have even less. Romney will be really prepared to attack again with the Bengazhi debacle, Obama had better have more than "Nuh-uh" prepared for a response.

Romney is solidifying the independent vote. And women are clearly leaning toward Romney. African Americans and young people are not going to turn out in any great numbers like in 2008.

T-Rav said...

I don't know if I would agree that women are leaning toward Romney--it seems to be either even or still leaning very slightly toward Obama. But it doesn't matter. Obama can't win under those circumstances.

BevfromNYC said...

T-Rav - women are evenly divided which to me says they are leaning toward Romney. That is monumental since Obama is spearheading the "War on Women" meme. Women just aren't as stupid and one-issue voters like the Dems assume.

AndrewPrice said...

Bev, Monday will be a disaster for viewership. For one thing, Monday Night Football will destroy the debate. For another, nobody cares about foreign policy. I'd look for a huge drop.

In terms of women, I think Obama has lost his edge, I don't know if they are leaning toward Romney yet. I think blacks will turn out a little less. The youth won't turn out at all. I would expect record low numbers from them.

AndrewPrice said...

Bev and T-Rav, I agree with both of you. If women are evenly divided, that tells me that non-black women are leaning toward Romney because black women vote in much larger numbers than black men and they will vote uniformly for Obama. So factor that out and you're looking at a couple points for Romney.

I also agree that women are much more complex than this War on Women meme understood. Like men, they care about jobs and family income first and foremost, then education for their kids, war for the members of their family who are soldiers, and then the rest. A tiny minority cares about abortion and contraception the most -- they are the mirror opposites of the Religious Right and both groups are about 3-5% of the population.

T-Rav said...

Bev, just trying to hedge my bets, that's all. But I agree, the fact that women are more or less evenly split after months of "War on Women" messaging is a very big deal.

T-Rav said...

Jeez, I didn't even think about the MNF thing. What moron scheduled that? If Obama has a spectacular debate, it won't reach nearly as many people as Romney's prior performance has. (Not that I'm expecting a spectacular debate from TOTUS.)

AndrewPrice said...

T-Rav, They did it during the Republican debate too. It's a stupid thing to do.

BevfromNYC said...

So Obama is doing damage control on Benghazi ahead of the debates, but going such well-respected hard news programs like David Letterman and The Daily Show to explain that he wasn't confused or confusing about the attacks. And that losing 4 American is not "optimal". So, they were went from "bumps in the road" to "not "optimal". Does he really think that he is helping himself?

AndrewPrice said...

Bev, 1.5 is optimal, I guess?

I agree with you that this is not helping. I think it shows that his line about how much he knows these people and how he send them there and he cares about them and how dare you question him about the loss of his friends.... was all an act and he was just trying to make people weepy so he could dodge out of a huge mistake on his part.

Anthony said...

I'm not surprised the debate didn't change anything. In the first debate Romney appeared credible and Obama looked lost. In the second Obama showed up, but neither he nor Romney damaged Romney's credibility.

I'll buy, read and review the legal thrillers. I'm not a big legal thriller guy (read Grisham and Turow back when) but I always enjoy a good book.

I am really looking forward to the conservative film guide (which I'll be happy to buy). I'm no man's film buff (I love junk movies even more than I love junk food which sadly is saying a lot) but I enjoy reading different perspectives on the modern film industry.

AndrewPrice said...

Anthony, Thanks! I appreciate that. I think you'll like both books. I've gotten a ton of positive e-mails about them. :)

And I think you'll like the conservative film guide. It's packed with information as well as, I think, some interesting discussions of a lot of films.

I think you're right about the debate. Obama almost needed to blow Romney away to change the momentum Romney got in the first debate and he didn't do that. They both came across as basically equals, which wasn't enough to turn things around. Plus, I think his performance (which was a good deal better than the first one) got lost in the haze of Crowley and the fact the debate was so full of numbers and competing claims that it was hard to take anything away from the debate.

T-Rav said...

I heard about the "optimal" thing earlier. My reaction--meh. I mean, it was certainly a poor choice of words, and it won't make him look any better, but I don't think it's really a sign of callousness, just him not choosing his words right. But I didn't hear the full clip, so maybe there's context to go with it.

AndrewPrice said...

T-Rav, I think the sign of callousness is going on comedy shows to talk about this. Could you imagine Ronald Reagan going to Johnny Carson to talk about the Beirut barracks bombing? No way.

T-Rav said...

Oh, to clarify, I think Obama is in fact a callous person, through and through. I was mainly referencing the use of the word "optimal," in and of itself.

AndrewPrice said...

I agree. I don't think "optimal" shows callousness. Nor am I the type of person to latch onto a word like "binders" and to try to make it mean something about a person's soul. But I do think that Obama has shown repeatedly that he is indifferent to the suffering of others.
